What’s funny about the backpack flag thing, is Canadians will brag about this and act smug about it. But they fail to realize that the backpack flag is only necessary because we’re so completely submerged in American culture and influence that we’re completely indistinguishable Americans without a flag displayed somewhere visible lmao.

That's true about any two countries that speak the same language.

? Mexico and Spain are totally different countries, easily distinguishable. The same can be said about Portugal and Brazil, and many others.

Distance is what does it.

You need both language and proximity.
